I have  a lot of listeners who want to be market farmers and they are always interested in how to get their customers to cook the food in their CSAs and also the people who grow their own food or get food at the market want to know how to cook more vegetables from their garden. The eternal CSA question what do I do with this produce I only partly recognize. We’ve been married for 25 years and my husband built this mini farm last year. but we just dug a well a few years ago 560′ deep and we’re working on making the change from gardener to market farmer. It’s a huge learning challenge somewhat like going from PC to Mac or vice Versa I’m so excited because I always wanted to work at Rodales. worked at https://www.rodale.com/ (Rodale) for 10 years. It’s part of a small community in Emmaus, PA. The farm where Bob Rodale organic movement even started before the word organic! Are you a millennial I talk about millennials a lot if you’ve been there for 10 years maybe your not.  IDK, I’m 32. I think millennial’s are born between 1980-1995, my step-daughters are born in 1980 and 1984 and they’re are. I think it’s still weird because a generation should be 18 years shouldn’t so IDK but I think you qualify. There’s a little more pre-chat here but then it jumps to our intro! http://amzn.to/2CgSQhP () PAUL KITA Paul Kita is the James Beard Award-winning Food & Nutrition Editor at https://www.menshealth.com/author/paul-kita (Men’s Health.)

I heard about you on this new podcast called Food Republic. One thing I love about this is your videos are short and simple! Tell us a little about yourself. Thanks for the kind introduction. I’ve been the food and nutrition editor at https://www.menshealth.com/author/paul-kita (Men’s Health.) for 10 years for those of you who aren’t looking to get a 6 pack abs chiseled. We’ve been reporting on food and nutrition before other magazines and websites were doing it.  We’re owned by Rodale Press as many of your listeners might know we’re founded by JI Rodale who is thought of as the father of the organic movement.  It was not even called that in the day. JI was just doing some interesting things at the farm and said we never needed them before why do we need them now? experimental Lehigh Valley Pennsylvania An hour and  1/2 from  Philidelphia open for visitation One thing a lot of listeners might be interested in, last year I talked to...
